Ugh. I’ve been utterly overwhelmed and have turned to food, as I have most of my life, for comfort. No, it doesn’t actually work, but it does work just enough that my broken brain goes back for more. I need, need need to get back on track and get this weight off, and I need to develop a healthy relationship with food.
Getting back up on the horse.

I think many of us that are overweight have the same problem. Every time I am stressed, I want to eat. It is a constant challenge, that I am slowly getting better at. The best of luck to you.
I’ve mentioned before that mental health and physical well-being often go hand in hand. Defeat one, and the other is more manageable. Many of us have used food as a coping mechanism, just like you illustrated here. At some point in our lives, that was what eased our pain, and we just never stopped.
